I know what you mean, but that's still different for everyone, and my point was directed at the impression one makes on clients.
Fortunately, then, I don't have that kind of job, because I'm never going to invest a lot of money in something like a car (which only depreciates). That might make me cheap, but then again, my husband and I decided yesterday to go to Paris for a vacation in about six weeks, just because we feel like it.
